ABSTRACT:
A taco shell with improved texture and resistance to fracture while eating is provided. A taco shell is formed from a cereal grain, for example, wheat or corn. During cooking, the shell develops a delaminated structure and is cooked sufficiently to make a rigid friable shell in the desired shape. By controlling the delaminated structure and final plasticizer content, collapse while being baked is reduced and a light, crisp, tender and reduced fracture taco shell is obtained.
